Several years ago I taught a beginner tap dance class. It
was a small group, only three students. They weren’t beginners though; they had
repeated the class for over a decade. I was the beginner in the studio having
never taught tap. I taught yoga and acting classes for kids before, but never
tap dance and never to students fifty years older than I.

Harriet, Edith and Charlotte dressed out in leotards and
tights for each class and spent the hour mastering shuffle hop step and flap
ball change choreography to big band music. If they didn’t like the music, they
told me what to bring the next week. If my choreography was too hard, they
changed it. If they didn’t like the bar exercises I created they told me what
they were going to do instead. “We’ve been taking tap for 13 years. We don’t
get any better. Don’t want to. Don’t care,” Edith reminded me. At the age of
75, they just wanted to dance and enjoy it.

One thing I learned is that I still want to be moving and
dancing like those women when I’m their age. The hour they spent together in
class each week accelerating their heart rate while stomping out rhythms and
shuffling across the floor kept each of them younger and healthier. The link
below shows a video from CBS News that proves exercise for stay young keeps the body agile and actually slows
down the aging process. The basketball team featured in the segment reminded me
of Charlotte, Harriet and Edith. I quit teaching that class after that
semester, but I’m certain the three of those women are still dancing.

I do not have any nightly skincare ritual and in fact, I'm pretty
sure my skin has suffered significant sun damage because I love tanning
at the beach.

So what are my secrets for staying young – other than
that I was lucky to inherit my father Hajji Alejandro's genes and
youthful looks? Here are my tips for looking fresh:

1. Be like Peter Pan. Ageing is mostly in the mind.
The trick to not getting old is to be like a kid. I don't mean be
immature and not face up to problems or responsibilities –
but whenever possible, always choose what will be most fun. When you're
enjoying what you do, you don't feel your age and lose track of time.

2. Be good to your body, be kind to yourself. People
often take for granted that getting enough rest is important to health.
When I was younger, I would work or party all night, sleep a few hours,
get up and hit the gym. Like a good soldier, I'd power through my
work-outs even if I had a hangover. That takes its toll on the body
eventually, so I don't do it anymore.

Also, I prefer to invest in comfort - in the way I travel and in the
places I choose to rest my head. I know lots of people who wouldn't
think twice about buying a designer bag but would scrimp on a
comfortable seat on the plane. I never got that but then again, to each
his own.

3. Go to the salon often. The confidence boost you
get from getting a good haircut or color is priceless. Get a massage,
manicure and pedicure regularly. When you pamper yourself and are
properly groomed, you feel more put together and ready to face the tasks
at hand. And voila, you look well-rested and not harassed!

4. Avoid monotony. There is a very good reason why
showbiz folk like myself tend to look younger than other people our age,
but it’s not that we have it easier or that we have the budget to get
regular facials or plastic surgery. When you're a singer or an actor,
every day you are doing something different. But even if you go to the
same office everyday, you can change up your routine. Engage in
interesting conversations, learn new skills, check out different places
to eat, etc. Whatever you do, don't let yourself get stuck in a rut.

5. Do exercises regularly. It's the only way to maintain a nice, supple and toned body that is resistant to the pull of gravity.

We would like to invite you to a class that we believe will make a
huge difference in the enjoyment of your life and in the lives of your
family. Let’s talk about how you can Stay Young The First 100 Years. Now
we already know what some of you are thinking. You’re thinking, now
wait just a minute, the title sounds catchy but do I really need to know
how to stay young for a hundred years? This sounds pretty far-fetched
and ambitious! Well, it’s really not – you need to start thinking about
what it means for you and your family to live a long time. Let’s look at
the facts.

In 1900 the average life span was 49 years old. Now there is no
question that this was because many people died when they were very
young. We didn’t have the kind of cures and we didn’t provide the kind
of health care that we provide today – but that is the point!
Everybody’s chances of living a long healthy life was much less back
then. As a matter of fact, the average life span today is 77.6 years and
growing! Scientists from the University of Texas report that by the
year 2050 there will be over 800,000 Americans over the age of 100 and
many will be living to 150! So what does that mean?

It means your kids
need to know more about how to stay young the first 100 years than they
need to wonder how they are going to spend their inheritance – because
you are probably going to live so long that they may be retired
themselves before they even get your inheritance (assuming there is
some!)! So YES, this is a topic you AND your family need to know about –
If we are going to live for 100 years, we need that long life to be a
QUALITY long life! We don’t merely want to be able to exist on this
planet – we want to be able to live and work and play on this planet –
we want to have a QUALITY life! This is why our presentation is so
important to you and your family. Reserve your seat today and learn the
secret of… How To Stay Young!

process. The chemicals absorbed from smoking will age you faster.

It is one thing to look young and another thing to feel young. Both
things are necessary to have a more active life. How can you achieve
them? Here are some effective ways that you can try!

Stop smoking. Smoking can is degenerative to the body. Nicotine is a
very harmful drug to be taken into the body. It can affect the organs
particularly the lungs. If the lungs are not able to function well, the
other organs in the body will not be able to get a good amount of
oxygen. If organs such as the heart or brain do not receive oxygen, that
can be rally dangerous to the body. Therefore, if you want to keep your
body young and healthy, avoid vices that can degenerate it.

Add fatty acids to your diet. Foods rich in omega 3 and DHA are good
for the heart and the brain. You can usually get these fatty acids from
nuts and fish. What they do is they keep the cells healthy particularly
the cells of the heart and the nervous system. With the right amount,
you can keep your body in a good condition.

Watch your weight. Being overweight is not a sin. However, it is not
so good for the body. For one, when you are obese, your body will not be
able to function well. The excess fats will make you feel tired all the
time. You cannot really become very active if you are carrying too
much. In addition to this, fats can block the blood vessels and pose
great risks to one's health. Therefore, it is recommended that you
always watch your weight. If you need to go on a diet, you have to do it
as soon as you can.

Make food delectable and appealing yet healthy. Never convene with
the idea that healthy foods are not delicious. They are! You just have
to know how to make them delicious. For instance, you can create a salad
filled with bright colors. Choosing fresh ingredients will allow you to
give life to the food you are preparing. You can also add vegetables to
your sandwiches. They will not only add color but they will also make
your sandwich healthy. If the body gets the vital nutrients, you will
definitely feel and look younger because your skin will become clearer.

Do cardiovascular exercise. Cardiovascular exercises are good for the
heart. It helps the heart pump more blood thus improving the overall
circulation of blood in the body. These exercises also make sure that
the heart is healthy and strong. This will regulate the blood pressure
in the body and will have positive effects to the skin and the brain.

Stay young Forever and active. Never think that you are too old to do
something. Learn new things and explore the world. Hang out with friends
and laugh with them. Try new hobbies and sports. Talk with people and
share knowledge with each other. Simple things like staying optimistic
will help greatly in making you feel and look years younger than your
actual age.

conferences and discussing this topic with the world’s biggest experts,
here’s my best advice for maximizing How to weight loss.

Although the brain isn’t a muscle, the old ‘use it or lose it’ adage still applies. Brain scans show that when
people use their brains in unaccustomed ways, more blood flows into
different areas of the brain, and new neural pathways form. In a study in the journal Nature
in 2004, young people were taught how to juggle. After three months,
MRI scans showed enlargement of the grey matter in their brains — the
part responsible for higher mental functions. When the participants in
the study stopped juggling, their brains shrank again, suggesting that
we need to keep our brains engaged to maintain mental agility and
function. So, whether it’s a crossword puzzle, Sudoku or a university
degree, trying giving your brain a challenge every day and you’ll be more likely to keep your marbles! Also, another study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association showed that more frequent participation in mentally stimulating activities can lead to a reduced risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

Anti-aging tip 2: Be sociable

According to US government research, social isolation is a predictor
of declining mental function in older age. Experts believe this may be
down to not using a wide variety of communication skills. Research shows
that people who are part of a group — whether it's a church or a book club — are healthier than solitary people when they are older,
and that the wider the range of relationships (family, friends, work
and so on) a person has, the less cognitive decline they will experience
with aging. So, as well as tackling the crossword puzzle on your
lonesome, make time in your life for shared activities — and ensure you spend time with as wide a range of people as possible.

Anti-aging tip 3: Exercise more

Many of the depressing changes once attributed to chronological aging — such as fat gain, loss of muscle, and poor posture — are now believed to be due to plain old inactivity. For example, a Fels Longitudinal Study — which investigated aging, body composition and lifestyle — found that women
who do vigorous physical activity such as running, cycling or swimming
several times a week weigh up to 11.8kg (26lb) less than sedentary women,
and have significantly less body fat. If you are more concerned about
your heart health than your dress size, though, then doing less intense
activities such as walking will help to protect your vital organ.
Maintaining as active a lifestyle as you can is good advice for anyone
trying to hold back the years.

Anti-aging tip 4: Eat oily fish

Oily fish such as salmon, mackerel, herring and tuna are the best
source of omega-3 essential fatty acids, which have been found to
protect against cardiovascular disease (particularly in combination with
statins), type II diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. Also, Omega-3 is believed to help the skin stay elastic and hydrated, which means wrinkles are less likely to appear
— and which is why salmon is the base of the famous anti-aging food
Perricone Plan. But the benefits of omega-3 aren’t just skin deep!
Research by Rush University in Chicago in 2005 found that eating oily
fish can slow the mental decline associated with aging. The results
showed that eating oily fish at least once a week can slow the rate of cognitive decline by 10 to 13 per cent per year.

Research has confirmed that there is an
abundance of foods that consists of anti-aging food properties. These anti-aging foods have proven to be beneficial if consumed on a regular
basis. They not only add to our life span, they keep age-associated
diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis in check. Every
so often, individuals feel the desire to “put the brakes” on the aging
process; however, scientists have not discovered the “fountain of youth”
as of yet, so we must resort to balancing our diets, which overall is
not a bad thing in itself.

As we age, the body begins to slow down
causing various aches and nuisances; though minor, they make us more
vulnerable to fatigue, fragility, and degenerative maladies.
Nevertheless, there is hope. There are particular foods that can assist
with counteracting the undesirable effects of aging. These foods are not
“miracle cures” against aging; nonetheless, they will improve your
general health and vivacity according to the National Institutes of
Health, who have been allocating millions of dollars to discover ways of
increasing the human lifespan.

Whereas healthy diet and exercise can
maintain a fit body into old age, there are foods exceptionally
proficient at reducing the affects of age-related health problems and
diseases. Here are ten foods that are full of anti-aging fighters.

1-Walnuts/Nuts –
According to the Harvard School of Public Health, nuts are a perfect age
fighting food and full of omega-3 essential fatty-acids. Walnuts and
nuts in general, assist with managing cholesterol levels, improve
digestive functioning, and strengthen immunity due to their rich mineral
content.

In addition, research has discovered
that even though nuts are a high-calorie, high-fat food, they do not
encourage weight-gain. This is because nuts are filling, and after
consumption, people eat less afterwards. In fact, the body does not
absorb up to 20% of nuts.

2-Berries – Researchers
at Tufts University discovered that a number of compounds in
blueberries and additional berries assist in decreasing inflammations.
In addition, they avert oxidative-damage due to age associated
disadvantages.
